Arteta and Ten Hag are fighting for the Ajax star who costs 40 million euros. Mohammed Kudus is said to have made it clear to Ajax that he wants to leave the club – with a move to the Premier League looking very possible.
The 22-year-old rejected a contract extension offer from the Dutch giants in April and has informed them that he wants to leave when the transfer window opens in June.
After scoring 22 goals in 48 matches for both Ajax and his national team Ghana, the attacking midfielder has attracted interest from several Premier League clubs. Athletic reports that Arsenal, Manchester United, and Newcastle are all closely monitoring Kudus’ situation, as he is under contract at the Johan Cruyff Arena until 2025.
In March, it was reported that former Ajax coach Erik ten Hag was planning to bring Kudus to his former club United, as he had previously done the same with Lisandro Martinez and Antony.
Arsenal is seeking to strengthen their team for the upcoming season, while Newcastle is in a similar position, aiming to compete for the title.
